Oscar Controls Restructuring?
RTSDaddy2:
I did it right this time, fellow BYOAC'ers! I searched first before asking dumb questions! I'm so proud of myself (shame they don't have a smilie patting itself on the back).
ANYWAY...was glad to see the post from Kelsey...we're just about ready to order a V2 and I also went to the page today to discover the website ordering closed down. I will search on eBay first, then contact the company for help if I need it.

Bump!
I just got back from vacation, and noticed that Oscar Controls has gone from "restructuring" to "currently closed."
Does this mean I'm SOL finding a V2 Spinner? Anyone heard from Kelsey lately?
Worst-case scenario: What's the best alternative for someone who wants realistic Tempest and Arkanoid gameplay?

Post your need in the Buy Sell Trade forum. That is what I did and Hoagie_One had an extra one that he sold me about 2 weeks ago. Post your add and I am sure someone will come through with one. You may also hit up user Zakk as well. I think he has some extra spiner stuff. He is liquidating his inventory of Oscar stuff.

For realistic Arkanoid gameplay you may buy a used real Arkanoid controller...but it isn't going to be realistic for Tempest. Buy a Vortex for realistic Tempest and it won't be realistic for Arkanoid...
Thus, buy both...

However, when playing arkanoid, your hand is on the spinner all the time -- thus the flywheel shouldn't present such a problem.
If I'm missing something here, please enlighten me. I'm already making a Frankenpanel -- two spinners seems a bit over the top.

PS -- My Control Panel needs .... MORE COWBELL.
